RESIDENTIAL RENOVATION — PANGRATI, ATHENS

2025 · 37 m²

SCOPE

Full interior renovation · Design development · FF&E specification · Custom Furniture · 3D visualisation

BRIEF

Complete redesign of an existing Athenian apartment, focused on maximising spatial efficiency and long-term usability within a compact footprint.

CONCEPT

A compact home re-composed through a controlled geometric language. Monolithic colour volumes act as spatial “structure” — clarifying zones, anchoring key functions, and restoring hierarchy. Selective curvature softens rigid axes, elongates movement, and turns circulation into a continuous, legible sequence.

KEY INTERVENTIONS

Expanded Bathroom · Enlarged Perimeter Kitchen · Full-Height Utility / Laundry Column · Integrated Storage Niches · Custom Rounded Headboard · Low, Continuous Ceiling Plane

SPATIAL STRATEGY

The bathroom was doubled by reclaiming underused corridor space, while the kitchen was enlarged and re-aligned into a clean geometric perimeter. A full-height utility column occupies the structural recess, integrating washer–dryer and storage. In the bedroom, an integrated headboard niche replaces bedside tables, freeing circulation within the narrow room.

Across all spaces, targeted strategies were applied to enhance visual continuity and perceived depth. Geometric control plays a central role in balancing the compact proportions. The ceiling was lowered and aligned with existing beams to create a continuous horizontal plane, visually unifying the kitchen and living area. Monolithic colour fields create fewer visual edges, improving spatial legibility and making the envelope feel more continuous. Rounded geometries were introduced selectively to soften rigid axes, stretch circulation paths, and ease transitions between spaces.
